Maximum number of accounts created with a phone number
I have reached the maximum number of accounts created on my phone number. If I delete an old iCloud, will I be able to create a new iCloud email with my phone number?

I don't see any articles mentioning that exact message but a related message is mentioned in: If you see “The maximum number of free accounts have been activated” - Apple Support where the limit applies to accounts created in a certain time frame (not the total accounts).
Apple apparently limits excessive Apple Account creation, or iCloud activation of web-created accounts, on any one device per year (presumably a 12-month period).

Thank you for you reply. This is a different situation. It is about the device, but not the phone number. I can continue to create, but at the Terms & Conditions when I press to continue it tells me that the phone number has been used too many times.
I suspect it is related but you are welcome to call Apple and ask them for a reason. Refer to this page for Apple Support for different countries ➔

Sometimes I take a break of a week or two but I have been on here posting many times per day for the past month or so.
So I’ve been following you for some time but just today I’ve started receiving emails about the people I’ve followed responses. Is this something new ? I haven’t changed any settings so don’t understand why all of a sudden this is happening? Any suggestions?

Sorry, I don't have any. I don't have emails sent about community activities. You may wish to ask this question on the Using Apple Communities forum.
Thank you however I’m not sure why this was delivered to my email? I don’t think it pertains to me? Do you happen to know why it was sent to my email?
